where was to hull and back great episode-cash and curry russians coming????
longest night ?? miracle of peckham ?some odd titles made it in top 20
so jolly boys outing better than Batman,time on our hands,unlucky winner is,
crying,danger uxd, would the public like to maybe vote again but seriously.
friday 14th number 7? tea for three number 4 is almost a joke not that good

I’ve just finished watching Jolly Boys Outing from the 20 Only Fools….and noticed a scene I haven’t seen before. Certainly not on VHS and DVD…
The scene as Del and Rodney sit down in the club and chat about cassandra, birds and blokes chat.
I had noticed a few other episodes that had other scenes I hadn’t seen before, so not sure if they are showing the original tv versions from way back. The opening scene to miami vice had the quo song in and not tears for fears..
I had noticed this on netflix with the first 3 series, lots of unedited versions..

20. Cash and Curry
19. Class of 69
18. Who’s a pretty Boy
17. The Miracle of Peckham
16. Danger UXD
15. The Russians are coming
14. Sleeping Dogs Lie
13. Three men, a women and a baby
12. May the Force Be with You
11. Strange Relations
10. The Long Game
9. Time On Our Hands
8. The Unlucky Winner Is
7. Friday the 14th
6. Yuppy Love
5. Hero’s and Villains
4. Tea For Free
3. Stage Fright

I think number 2 will either be A Touch Of Glass or To Hull and Back and number 1 has got to be The Jolly Boys Outing.

Number 20 was Miami Twice and number 10 must be a lost episode never aired.

I hope number 1 isn’t A Touch of Glass purely down to the infamous scene.

If Jolly Boys is not in the top 2, then I would question which kind of fans actually voted! You have the hard-core fans from late 20’s to well over 50’s and perhaps you have the younger fans who may see things differently? I don’t know.

I’m so very surprised by some of the choices and where they fit. Everybody has their opinion but I can’t help but think Cash and Curry/Who’s a Pretty Boy shouldn’t have been in the top 20. Tea for Three – great episode, but number 4????

Ah, sorry about that mistake, I seen the list on an Only Fools Facebook page and copied it over here. Miami Twice wasn’t 20 it was Sir David’s personal favourite. You’re right though the top 20 is a little strange looking in general!

just into the top ten:
episodes that have been done:
20 cash and curry 19 class of 62 18 whos a pretty boy
17 miracle of peckham 16 danger uxd 15 russians are coming
14 sleeping dogs lie 13 three men a woman and a baby(Del is a dad)
12 may the force be with you 11 strained relations(sad Grandad)
10 the longest night 9 time on our hands(trotters are millionaires)

I’ll be honest, I never voted. Infact, I didn’t know about the voting!! I thought there was some minor online poll some months back, but didn’t know Gold were actively asking the fans to vote for a show.

People on social media were almost outraged by Miami Twice being DJ’s faveourite episode. Why?? It’s a bloody amazing and clever episode. It surprises me how many people dislike this episode or consider it their least faveourite. It’s one of the most exciting and funny epsiodes and that was the impression I got from tens of thousands of fans growing up. These days, as I mentioned in a previous post, younger fans may view these episodes differently.

Hi Rob, the format is that Sir David says a little bit about the episode before they go and show it.

So on Saturday night there he revealed ‘Miami Twice’ as his favourite and said a little bit about it (such as a memory while filming) then they go ahead and show the whole episode. It’s going to be the same for all of them right down to number 1, we only get to see Sir David for a minute or so before each episode.

I was hoping that someone would upload a collection of all the short clips of Sir David before each episode after they’re all revealed so we can watch them all in one long video, which would be nice as i won’t be able to see them all as they’re actually revealed.

slightly confused with format of these top 20 OF and Hs
i thought Sir David would have a bit more to do with the top 20 i missed first 10 mins of Miami Twice last night has Sir David revealed his favourite?

Ah, I see the format for this is that Sir David says a little bit about the episode before they show it.

I hope someone uploads a collection of all the short clips of Sir David before each episode after they’re all revealed so we can watch them all in one long video, which would be nice as i won’t be able to see them all as they’re revealed.

I echo what some others have said on here. Without Perry’s time, hard work, dedication and commitment Only Fools would not be the same!

As much as we all love and adore the show, the events that are put on are what is keeping OFAH alive.

Without Perry, my collection wouldn’t be what it is today!

Having the pleasure of working with a true gent and helping the club with new thoughts, ideas and events/conventions is something I’m proud of, and I personally know the blood, sweat and tears that Perry puts in to keep our favourite show going, and bringing us new items all the time!

Keep up the good work Pel, we want to see many more of your hidden gems!
